Hi all. anyone go to aqua natal and was it beneficial?. Been told I can go from 12 weeks and I think I can get time off work if its recommended by my midwife.

Yep I've been going since about 28 weeks and really loved it. I always feel great afterwards and it seems to help any little aches and pains. Plus I've made loads of new friends who are due around the same time as me.

I went to my first class the other week. It was great fun and there were even people due in a couple of weeks there. My midwife took the class so I knew all the exercise was safe. I had great fun and got to chat to other expectant mums (the first time I had met any face to face rather than chatting online) I find it hard with the weather and being tired to do much exercise at the moment so its a good thing for me. My work won't give me paid time off for the class as it is not classed as an appointment or required activity, but they are being good about arranging my rota so I can go.

I went to aquanatal for a few weeks later on im pregnancy, i found it really helped with back ache as it eased all the pressure off my spine, also makes you feel really good as its good excersise but not too strenuous!! I wanted to do it right til the end but got an ear infection so had to stop! :(
Good luck and enjoy :) xxx
